can you test with:

\unexpanded\def\unicodeglyph#1#2% watch the double mapping
  {\begingroup
   \getvalue{@@\currentucharmapping\strippedcsname\uchar}{#1}{#2}%
   \bodyfontsize\unicodescale\bodyfontsize
   \font\unicodefont=\truefontname{\unicodestyle\unicodeone}
     at \currentfontscale\bodyfontsize
   \unicodestrut
  \unicodefont\unicodecharcommand{\char\unicodetwo\relax}%
   \endgroup}

i'll change the handlers in not applying a strut by default
